Chapter 346 Engagement
"Let's go, big brother will take you to play." Yi Mobao held Shen Yubao's hand and pulled Shen Yubao out to play.
"Next, it's time for me to go see my elder brother." It was not difficult for Yi Qianhuan to guess how shocked Yi Qianyuan would be after hearing the news.
Sure enough, when she was halfway there, she ran into Yi Qianyuan who came looking for her.
"Can this Bei Yunting do anything reliable? He's crazy to marry my sister to a eunuch!" Yi Qianyuan was so angry that he seemed like he was going to jump up.
"Brother, you are disrespecting the emperor. You can't speak nonsense like that." Yi Qianhuan sighed.
"What's wrong with you? If you don't want to, we will go to the palace now, and I will accompany you..."
"Brother, I am willing." Seeing Yi Qianyuan was stunned, Yi Qianhuan repeated again, "Brother, I am willing to get engaged to Ji Chilian. I am willing."
"Do you really love him?" Yi Qianyuan almost suffocated and forced himself to say this.
Yi Qianhuan avoided Yi Qianyuan's gaze: "Well... you can say that."
She felt a little guilty, so she avoided his gaze, fearing that Yi Qianyuan would find out.
Unexpectedly, in Yi Qianyuan's view, her attitude was like she was shy and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
Yi Qianyuan suddenly felt like the sky had fallen. He didn't even talk to Yi Qianhuan. He turned around and staggered away.
Bao Huaer followed Yi Qianyuan all the way. Seeing him in such a state of despair, she couldn't help but sigh, "Huan'er, don't blame your brother. He just cares about you and can't accept it for a while."
"Sister-in-law, please help me persuade my brother. The marriage has been decided, and the governor and I plan to follow the order. Tomorrow, I will trouble my brother to go to the palace with me to express my gratitude." Yi Qianhuan said.
Bao Huaer agreed immediately and hurried to chase Yi Qianyuan.
Soon, the news of Yi Qianhuan and Ji Chilian's engagement spread throughout the capital and became a hot topic among the people.
Many people think that Yi Qianhuan and Ji Chilian are a match made in heaven, and the emperor's arrangement has indeed created a perfect couple.
However, many people think that the two people did not seem to have any feelings for each other before, and suddenly being paired together may not be a good thing.
The person who was mentioned most about this marriage was Princess Lianhe.
Before this, everyone in the capital city knew that Princess Lianhe was truly devoted to the Governor.
If it weren't for the fact that Duke Du was not considered a real man, the Emperor would have granted a marriage between Duke Du and Princess Lianhe long ago.
Many people said that it was all because Princess Lianhe was a royal daughter, so the emperor did not consider letting his daughter marry Ji Chilian, a eunuch.
As soon as this speculation was put forward, it was denied by many people.
Princess Lianhe’s status is indeed noble, but isn’t the status of a national god more noble than that of a princess?
For a while, the people could not argue whether this marriage arrangement elevated Ji Chilian or degraded Yi Qianhuan.
Faced with so many rumors, Yi Qianhuan did not take them seriously and went to the palace with Yi Qianyuan to express his gratitude.
In the imperial study, Bei Yunting looked extremely surprised when he saw Yi Qianyuan.
Especially when he heard that Yi Qianyuan had not returned for many years because he had lost his memory due to a serious injury, he personally came to support Yi Qianyuan.
"The young general has suffered!" Bei Yunting sighed with emotion, and he looked so sad that he seemed to be about to cry. "I was so confused that I had no idea about all this. Fortunately, the young general has returned triumphantly today, and I am very relieved!"
Yi Qianhuan watched coldly from the side, and couldn't help but praise Bei Yunting for his good acting skills in his heart!
Just now, Yi Qianyuan concealed the truth of the matter and did not mention Bei Yunting's frame-up at all. He only said that he was seriously injured and could not remember the details of the battle.
Even if Ke Yi Qianyuan 'doesn't remember', Bei Yunting should never forget how he killed those 100,000 soldiers.
But he was able to act innocent.
What's more, it's no secret that her elder brother has entered the capital. Bei Yunting has sent four or five groups of spies, and they can really pretend to be completely ignorant!
She sincerely felt that someone like Bei Yunting was not suitable to be an emperor, and might be more suitable to be an actor.
"So, the young general has been back for almost a month. National God, it's a good thing that the young general has returned. Why didn't you inform me in advance so that I could welcome him in advance!" Bei Yunting looked at Yi Qianhuan, but he didn't really blame him.
Yi Qianhuan remained calm and said, "Your Majesty, it is not that I am trying to cover up the truth, but because my brother was poisoned by the white atractylodes powder, his mind is unstable. Therefore, I dare not easily bring my brother to see the emperor, fearing that it would be impolite."
Bei Yunting gave them seats and sat down again. "Atractylodes powder? I have heard of this thing. It seems to be a life-saving drug, but it is very addictive. Once addicted, it will lead to confusion and even memory disorder, turning a person into a dementia. Could it be that the young general's memory is unclear because of taking Atractylodes powder?"
Yi Qianyuan knelt down and bowed to Bei Yunting: "To be honest, I was supposed to die. Thanks to my wife who saved my life, I was able to survive. Even so, I was forced to get infected with Atractylodes powder. If it wasn't for Huan'er's idea, I wouldn't even be able to return to my roots..."
Bei Yunting sighed after listening to this and asked tentatively: "This thing is very harmful to people, is it impossible to get rid of it?"
"I have tried many times, but have never succeeded." Yi Qianyuan said this, and after a bitter smile, his eyes became desperate.
"Don't be discouraged, my dear minister. I will ask the best imperial physician to treat you. Someone, go and ask Imperial Physician Xie to come over and take the young general's pulse!"
"Brother, Doctor Xie is the judge who takes care of the emperor's health. This shows that the emperor really values you."
When Yi Qianyuan heard this, he showed a look of panic: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am a sinner. How could I trouble Your Majesty so much?"
"Who said you were a criminal? You are clearly a meritorious minister of our Yunzhao Kingdom. When Duke Yi and his wife died in battle, I was deeply saddened and have been looking forward to your triumphant return. Now that you are back, the title of Duke should be inherited by you."
Bei Yunting smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "Come here, pass on my order, let the young general inherit the title of Duke of Italy!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yi Qianyuan kowtowed.
"Please come forward, Duke." Bei Yunting smiled kindly and said in a gentle manner, "Duke, there is still unrest between our Yunzhao Kingdom and Beijiang Kingdom. I have too few talents to use. You must take the time to take care of your health and share my worries as soon as possible!"
Yi Qianyuan said respectfully: "Yes, I obey your order!"
At this time, Doctor Xie came.
Yi Qianhuan let Doctor Xie treat Yi Qianyuan. Seeing Yi Qianyuan coughing from time to time due to his weakness, Yi Qianhuan looked worried: "Doctor Xie, how is my brother doing?"
Doctor Xie's eyebrows were almost twisted into a ball. He knelt down to Bei Yunting first, and then bowed to Yi Qianhuan: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Duke's health... is very, very bad."
